The nicest people ever! I’d never tried Somali food before, and enjoyed my experience a lot. The people here were so nice, and helped me decide what I wanted from their pastry case. It was a great time and a quiet place to enjoy a late lunch. I had their goat meal and mandazi!

The Fuul Was delicious, and portions were generous. The service was fast and friendly. I was a little disappointed that there wasn’t a lot of Somali dishes to try but the quality of the options more than made up for the lack of variety.

Their sambusas are inexpensive, fresh and delicious ($1.49), and they're quite large! Cappucino was good too. Seems like a good variety of different foods. Will come come back for the sambusas for sure, and try more of the menu. It hit the spot.

I was visiting family in Minneapolis and wanted to check this Somalian restaurant. Everything was delicious!! I never had chicken sambusa. It was soooo good!!! All the other desserts were a hit. Brought so many childhood memories back. I would definitely recommend this place for good home style Somalian meal

First taste of Somalian food, no reference for comparison. Good seasoned rice. Sambusa was very good, a little dry and heavily seasoned. The goat meat was tender and well seasoned. The sauce that comes with the meal is too spicy for me.

They serve you Brilla and Ragu for $20 plus. And the “Somali tea” is just a tea bag, not authentic Somali tea. Don’t care how clean the place is or how good the service is, if the food is low quality and in this case outrageously overpriced for the quality, it’s not worth returning to.

Yum, the food is DELICIOUS, and the staff were super kind and accommodating. The rice was creamy and well seasoned. We wanted to try the goat, but it was already gone for the day, so we tried the beef steak rice platter, and it was great. Good prices and a solid amount of food!! I was also very pleased to see they use compostable takeout containers, as I try to frequent the places that are using less plastic/styrofoam.

Parking: just a busy area with a lot of cars and people around, constantly. Can be tricky to squeeze in.

I have been to Hufan a dozen times. The food is amazing. The goat liver and malawa is one of the best dishes I have ever had. Hufan is a family owned joint and they are super cool.

They seem very slow and when they make the food they will put a table you have to go and get it by the time you get food it may be cold.
